Emphatic decision from Edwards and co to not offer Wijnaldum, at his age, a lucrative new contract. Stood firm and will reap the benefits. Was clearly just after a huge wedge. I do think, however, we’ll miss his availability…
"It was a difficult choice,” said Wijnaldum. “I negotiated with Barcelona for four weeks and we didn’t get it done.
“PSG was more decisive and the project they have there really appealed to me.
“Yes, I admit I’m going to make more money in Paris, but my choice has nothing to do with the money. I thought I would go to Barca, the only club I’d been interested in for a long time.”
